The information about arrest of top ULFA leader in Bangaladesh is really appreciable.The terrorists and their organisation have no faith on democracy and simply exploit the innocent people for the welfare and luxury life of the few terrorists.People of the region should ignore the terrorists and work hard for development .The development will certainly reflect in all respects of the region,family,organisation etc.
Assam's picture

Why dont you guys relise we dont care for India. Discontent in Kashmir, Punjab, Maoist liberated areas and of course Assam shows that there is widespread oppression. Not one group, but many are unhappy.
